Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleSHALE GAS EXTRACTION AND WATER CONSUMPTION IN NORTH CAROLINA: A PRIMERManoj K. Jha, Daniel G. FernandezAbout 25,000 acres of area underlying the Deep and Dan River Basins in North Carolina has been identified to contain large shale gas reservoirs that could be used for the natural gas production. This study attempted to quantify the impact of potential hydraulic fracturing (or fracking) activities in the existing water resources of North Carolina. Supply and demand analysis was … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 10 Apr 2014 · 8,029 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleIdentifying Nutrient Contributors in North Carolina’s Coastal Plain Blackwater RiversNarayan B. Rajbhandari, Sushama Pradhan, Mauro Di Luzio et al.The goal of this study was to assess potential nitrogen and phosphorus contribution from point sources and non-point sources in North East Cape Fear River (NECFR) watershed in North Carolina. A watershed scale hydrologic model, Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT), was used to quantify Total Nitrogen (TN) and Total Phosphorus (TP) loadings to North Carolina’s Coastal Plain Blackwater Rivers. … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 5 Nov 2015 · 7,389 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleFuture Water Budgets and Water Supply Stress under Climate Change and Urbanization in the Upper Neuse River Basin, North Carolina, USAMichelle Tong Sun, Ge Sun, Chong Liu et al.Urbanization and climate change are the two major threats to watersheds and the environment in the United States. It is imperative to understand the sensitivity of hydrologic responses to climate and urbanization across different physiographic regions in order to formulate sound watershed management strategies and policies. This study evaluated a watershed water balance model, Water Supply Stress Index (WaSSI), with … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 30 Jun 2015 · 7,162 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleRainfall Depth-Duration-Frequency Relationships for South Carolina, North Carolina, and GeorgiaJ. P. Raiford, N.M. Aziz, A.A. Khan, D.N. PowellThe depth-duration-frequency curves and isopluvial maps for the region encompassing South Carolina, North Carolina, and Georgia were developed using the available rainfall data. The aim was to update the existing intensity-duration-frequency curves in the region and obtain these curves at ungauged sites throughout the region using the newly developed rainfall frequency analysis techniques. A total of 17 durations ranging from … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 7,323 accessesView PDFCite
